Example for Configuring Unified Access for Wired and Wireless Users

Overview of Unified Access for Wired and Wireless Users

In practice, both wired and wireless users need to access one network. For example, the PCs and printers of a company connect to the network in wired mode, and laptops and mobile phones connect wirelessly. After unified access for wired and wireless users is configured on a network, both wired and wireless users can access the network and be managed in a unified manner.

Configuration Notes

  • For details about common WLAN configuration notes, see General Precautions for WLAN. For more deployment and configuration suggestions, see Wireless Network Deployment and Configuration Suggestions.

  • Configure a proper RADIUS packet retransmission timeout interval.

    For a large-scale or busy network, configure the shortest retransmission timeout interval for RADIUS request packets. When a long retransmission timeout interval is set, retransmission occupies system resources. A short retransmission timeout interval can improve the AC's packet processing capability.

    The default retransmission timeout interval for wireless users is 5 seconds, which is suitable for most wireless user authentication scenarios. When IP addresses of more than eight authentication servers are configured in a RADIUS server template, or 802.1X authentication is used, it is recommended that the retransmission timeout interval be set to 1 second to improve network processing efficiency.

  • From V200R011C10, WLAN configurations are automatically delivered, without the need of running the commit all command.

  • In this example, Portal authentication is used. To ensure network security, configure an appropriate security policy according to service requirements.
  • In tunnel forwarding mode, the management VLAN and service VLAN cannot be the same. If you set the forwarding mode to direct forwarding, you are not advised to configure the management VLAN and service VLAN to be the same.

  • In direct forwarding mode, configure port isolation on the interface directly connected to APs. If port isolation is not configured, many broadcast packets will be transmitted in the VLANs or WLAN users on different APs can directly communicate at Layer 2.

  • Configure the management VLAN and service VLAN:
    • In tunnel forwarding mode, service packets are encapsulated in a CAPWAP tunnel and forwarded to the AC. The AC then forwards the packets to the upper-layer network. Service packets and management packets can be forwarded normally only if the network between the AC and APs is added to the management VLAN and the network between the AC and upper-layer network is added to the service VLAN.
    • In direct forwarding mode, service packets are not encapsulated into a CAPWAP tunnel, but are directly forwarded to the upper-layer network. Service packets and management packets can be forwarded normally only if the network between APs and upper-layer network is added to the service VLAN and the network between the AC and APs is added to the management VLAN.
  • No ACK mechanism is provided for multicast packet transmission on air interfaces. In addition, wireless links are unstable. To ensure stable transmission of multicast packets, they are usually sent at low rates. If a large number of such multicast packets are sent from the network side, the air interfaces may be congested. You are advised to configure multicast packet suppression to reduce impact of a large number of low-rate multicast packets on the wireless network. Exercise caution when configuring the rate limit; otherwise, the multicast services may be affected.
    • In direct forwarding mode, you are advised to configure multicast packet suppression on switch interfaces connected to APs.
    • In tunnel forwarding mode, you are advised to configure multicast packet suppression in traffic profiles of the AC.
    For details on how to configure traffic suppression, see How Do I Configure Multicast Packet Suppression to Reduce Impact of a Large Number of Low-Rate Multicast Packets on the Wireless Network?.

Networking Requirements

A hospital needs to deploy both a wired and a wireless network. To simplify management and maintenance, the administrator requires that wired and wireless users be centrally managed on the AC, non-authentication and Portal authentication be configured for the wired and wireless users respectively, and intra-AC roaming is enabled for wireless users.

As shown in Figure 1, the AC connects to the egress gateway Router in the uplink direction. In the downstream direction, the AC connects to and manages APs through access switches S5700-1 and S5700-2. S5700-1 is deployed on the first floor, and S5700-2 is deployed on the second floor. An AP2030DN is deployed in each room to provide both wired and wireless access. AP5030DNs are deployed in corridors to provide wireless network coverage. Both S5700-1 and S5700-2 are PoE switches and supply power to connected APs.

To facilitate network planning and management, the access switches are only used to transparently transmit data at Layer 2, and all gateways are configured on the AC.

The AC functions as a DHCP server to assign IP addresses to APs, STAs, and PCs.

The following uses an AC running V200R009C00 as an example. The key configurations vary in different versions. For details, see the Command Reference in the actual version.

Configuration Roadmap

The configuration roadmap is as follows:

  1. Configure network interworking of the AC, APs, S5700-1, S5700-2, and other network devices.
  2. Configure the AC as a DHCP server to assign IP addresses to APs, wired users, and wireless users.
  3. Configure a RADIUS server template, configure authentication, accounting, and authorization in the template, and configure Portal authentication.
  4. Configure basic WLAN services, including AC system parameters, AP management, and WLAN service parameters.
  5. Configure VAPs and deliver VAP parameters to APs.
  6. Verify the configuration to ensure that both wired and wireless users can access the Internet.

Procedure

  1. Configure network devices to communicate with each other.

    # Add GE0/0/1 to GE0/0/4 of S5700-1 to VLAN 100 (management VLAN) and VLAN 201 (VLAN for wired service packets), and add GE0/0/1 to GE0/0/4 of S5700-2 to VLAN 100 and VLAN 202 (VLAN for wireless service packets). Set PVIDs for interfaces directly connected to APs. You are advised to configure port isolation on these interfaces to reduce unnecessary broadcast traffic. S5700-1 is used as an example here. The configuration on S5700-2 is similar. For details, see the configuration file of S5700-2.
